NAMPA, Idaho (KBOI) - Nampa Police is searching for several persons of interest after a Nampa man was found dead in a Walgreens parking lot with a gunshot wound early Sunday morning.

Officers responded to a call of shots fired at the Walgreens on 12th Avenue and 7th Street South shortly before 2:40 a.m. Sunday. Police say 26-year-old Pedro Martin Jr. suffered a gunshot wound. He was taken to the hospital, but later died.

Police say that they don't believe the crime is gang-related. They say they are trying to figure out if this has to do with a relationship Martin may have been in.

Police say there was an altercation called in that may have something to do with the shooting. "There was an earlier incident where he had been involved. Not his name but other people's names had come up and we're interviewing those folks to see if there is some connection to that," Sgt Joe Ramirez said.
